‘I’m genuine’: Cowboys' Jerry Jones discusses attending 1950s desegregation demonstration, his perspective on NFL race relations

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys played, and won, a game on Thanksgiving at their home AT&T Stadium.

Jones addressed the Cowboys' victory, their growth and their setbacks. As he typically does.

The major difference: He also, at length, addressed a feature that The Washington Post published Wednesday based extensively on Jones’ life and interviews with the 80-year-old team owner who doubles as general manager.
